yet another reason why college is a scam.
Buying your books.
Let me set this up. I'm in the first day of my English and get the list of the books required on Wednesday. Books can be new or used. So I go home to order the books on Thursday. Find both on Amazon.com for a combined total w/shipping of about $43. But it will take TWO business days for shipping and I need the books FIRST thing on Monday.
So I have to go buy the books from the on campus book store. Used.
Total: $91.
Now TELL me that's not a scam.
